This Birthday Wreath Is Making Crafty Facebookers Froth

We all know the international sign for ‘hey, a party over here’ is a balloon attached to a letterbox, but this is next level.

Using balloons instead of greenery, Perth mum Tracy took the Christmas staple and reimagined it for her daughter’s birthday.

And the result, posted to the Kmart Mums Australia Facebook page on Sunday, is kind of amazing.

She said she taped a pool noodle together with duct tape and pinned the balloons on, folding each balloon slightly to add fullness. She also said she “curled the wire thingies” (which look like pipe cleaners) before pinning them on as well.

Responding to a commenter, Tracy said she used “just shy of 500” balloons and a couple of hours.
